After Sir Shao agreed to Gu Ao's conditions, Mr. Fang said a few more candidates who could be finalized and did not have any differences, comforting the mainland's co-production face.

For example, Huang Rong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is played by Wen Meiling, and there is no difference between the two sides. Wen Meiling is currently a completely frustrated newcomer. She has only played a shampoo commercial before and played a supporting role in a TV series with no sense of existence.

Her greatest entertainment industry qualifications were only a host of a late-night female variety show on a TVB station. Historically, when TVB started filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", she held an audition for the role of Huang Rong, which gave her the opportunity to stand out. Before the filming started, her abilities and acting skills were quite questioned by the public.

Now that due to cooperation with the mainland, famous actors have withdrawn from the competition, she is under much less pressure. This kind of newcomer who is almost unfamous is of course the same as Liu Dehua in the supporting stage, thinking, "Become famous first, and only if you become famous is qualified to consider whether Wanwan will be blocked."

Yang Guo in the Divine Condor He was originally from Liu Dehua. Liu Dehua is now in the ban period of Wanwan. He has more debts and no worries about lice and no itch, and it is just right to take over the situation.

In this way, the main character who was vacant because of fear of banning was positioned as Guo Jing in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which should not be difficult to solve.

Mr. Fang took advantage of the good conversation between the two sides, Gu Ao was in a good mood and threw out an unfortunate news:

"Gu Sheng, the people above have decided for the time being - there is another important trouble here, and I want to ask Gu Sheng to find a solution. Wang Yuyan and Chen Yulian don't want to go to the mainland. Moreover, she has seen Mr. Qi's makeup photos before, and Mr. Qi is very satisfied with her image as Xiaolongnu.

If this problem cannot be solved, we can still move "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to mainland filming, but "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will have to face major adjustments - of course, there are indeed difficulties, not that I want to balance the Wanwan side, I hope you understand and also reflect our difficulties with relevant leaders of the mainland cultural department."

Gu Ao raised his eyebrows and knew that the other party still wanted to be able to do everything and not offend both sides.

"Can't Xiaolongnu replace people?" Gu Ao confirmed first and then military personnel.

Mr. Fang looked embarrassed and shirked the blame: "Gu Sheng, you should know that the character Xiaolongnu is still very important in Mr. Zhen's mind. He used to describe Xia Meng's character and his personal feelings. He should not allow the image he despised to interpret Xiaolongnu."

Gu Ao was not willing to accept this kind of statement.

In the 2010s, after Mr. Shi was in a mess, he not only changed the original work, but also became more and more indulgent in remakes and messing around. Even the style of Baozichen can play Xiaolongnu. If you say how high his requirements must be, isn't this nonsense?

But some things gradually faded with the development of time. Later generations of people in their 80s may have taken everything lightly, but when they were in their 50s, they were inevitably a little obsessed.

In the remake of the 1980s, "The God of Condor Heroes" had to let Mr. Shi personally nod the makeup photos of Xiaolongnu before selling the adaptation rights. This was a convention.

When Gu Ao symbolically spent tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars to buy the adaptation rights for two years, the supplementary clause in the contract also wrote this article. Gu Ao knew that as long as the image of Xiaolongnu could not make Mr. Shi nod, the other party had the right to refund the money and take back the adaptation rights for this drama.

This is the trouble of doing business with literati. You don’t know when you have a bad temper waiting there.

Gu Ao stroked it for a while and suggested: "That's better. Anyway, the construction scale of "Songcheng Street" on Lanting Cinema is not large. Let's reduce the scale of short-term infrastructure investment and stagger the schedule.

Starting this month, we will start filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". This kind of big plot has fifty or sixty episodes. It is necessary to film until the end of the New Year. Guo Jing has no one to act. I think it would be fine if Liang Jiahui was replaced. I believe he will become popular in the mainland. As for "The Legend of Condor Heroes", let it go and leave it until the New Year before filming.

I will go back to the United States this month to Professor Kissinger, finish my doctorate, and I will come back in January next year. In the past few months, I will be responsible for the casting of Mr. Cha and Xiaolongnu, and I will guarantee that he nodded - as long as he nods, you should be fine."

Gu Ao kicked the ball to Mr. Cha, and of course Sir Shao and Mr. Fang couldn't say anything.

Because the key to casting in this drama is the original work Fang nodding, the original work Fang is the biggest, and it is decided from the beginning of the authorization contract.

"What if Gu Sheng can't find a little dragon woman who will satisfy Mr. Cha?" Mr. Fang asked in the end.

Gu Ao was also very arrogant: "If I can't find it, I will give up the exercise of the right to adapt the film and television of "The God of Condor Heroes" and give it to you all. You like to use Chen Yulian, whether it is local or Wanwan, it's easy to do business. You still need to have this courage. You have to do what you promised. It's normal to make money and lose money. How can you make money just?"

When he said this, Sir Shao and Mr. Fang looked at each other. They were old couples. Mr. Fang read from Sir Shao's eyes that "Mr. Cha's temper is not so easy to deal with. If it is really done, we will accept it."

So Mr. Fang obediently accepted Gu Ao's proposal.

Everyone is decent, and it is impossible to be a little bit of profit.

After the tone was set, the old and weak Sir Shao kindly extended his olive branch:

"Gu Sheng, I wish you a happy cooperation this time. Let's do this. In a few days, our wireless station will have a singing talent show, which is a TV variety show. On the night of the competition, there will be a friendship party between business celebrities and entertainment industry people. I invite you to attend. I don't know if you can enjoy it."

Gu Ao nodded: "When did I dare not to give the invitation from Sir Shao? I just don't know what the theme is. It should be more than just playing around."

Sir Shao smiled indifferently, looking very kind, but his words were murderous: "Are you here? Gu Shengyuan is a guest. Originally, only Mr. Li from Zhongying ran to me and said that he wanted to ban anyone who has been to the mainland. You have never spoken. This is your first time to speak, so how can I not be more formal?"

Gu Ao nodded and signaled Sir Shao to continue.

He knew that the other party mentioned just now, "Mr. Li of China Film" is a film distributor with the official capital background of Wanwan. Wanwan banned the Xiangjiang artists who went to the mainland, and they used this channel to make harsh words.

Sir Shao gave Gu Ao face and asked him to have any other little fish and shrimp that he wanted to ban, and announced it with Tang Zhenye's ban to regain some momentum for the cultural departments in the mainland.

Sir Shao continued: "In addition, I heard that Gu Sheng has a wide range of people in the field of diplomacy. Since July, many rich people in Xiangjiang want to run out. Although we don't know how to run for Hong Kong dollars or over 10 billion, there are many people who are ready to move.

Everyone is talking about where to go in the future of Xiangjiang’s money. Some people have also jumped more happily recently, so I would like to ask Gu Sheng to give me some advice."

Gu Ao's eyes hopped slightly, and he pretended to smile and asked, "Why, are there any tycoons who want to escape from Xiangjiang to attend? I'm not responsible for debating with others and singing about the rise and fall."

Sir Shao also smiled, stretched out his two fingers, pointed at Gu Ao and shook them tremblingly, and had not spoken for a long time: "Talking to smart people is to save effort. There is a wealthy businessman named Kong Shangzhong who is not much wealthy from our family. He will also attend. I wonder if Gu Sheng is familiar with this person."

"I'm not very familiar, but I'll get it soon." Gu Ao said ambiguously, "I will definitely be here for this grand event."

"Then I thank you first, Yihua, help me see you off." Sir Shao raised his hand and asked the concubine to see you off.

Mr. Fang sent Gu Ao out of the mansion as he said.

When the car was driving on Baijia Road, Mr. Fang raised his hand and gave Gu Ao some advice, saying that there was a mansion no less than that of Shao, Bao, Li and other big families, which was the home of Kong Shangzhong, a luxury goods merchant/jeweler/commercial real estate tycoon.

Gu Ao secretly remembered it in his heart, thinking about how much money this mansion would be worth and how much loan it would be if it was forcibly auctioned by HSBC Bank.

...

After leaving Shao Mansion, Gu Ao went back to his simple residence in Yau Ma Tei.

He bought the house three years ago. At that time, Hanle Electronics' business was targeted by CITIC Trust and Tiankun Entertainment was just created. Gu Ao didn't have much money to enjoy for himself.

Three years have passed, and the old house in Yau Ma Tei is obviously not worthy of the "Gu Mansion" style and level. Fortunately, Gu Ao is not a person who wants to enjoy himself and never minds.

On the way back, Gu Ao had no time to think about Xiaolongnu's candidate for the time being, but was thinking about whether the "83 version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that was originally popular in another time and space can still become popular in the mainland.

Huang Yuehua's image of Guo Jing was too deeply rooted in Gu Ao's mind in his previous life. In contrast, Liang Jiahui had a kind of domineering aura. When he was young, he was impressed by the weak Emperor Xianfeng, and later he was the big brother of Wanwan in "Black Gold".

It's hard to play such a simple and honest person.

However, Gu Ao must give priority to those Xiangjiang actors who are determined to join the mainland, and this principle cannot be changed.

Liang Jiahui and Liu Dehua are the benchmarks for joining the mainland in the past two years, so Guo Jing and Yang Guo are no longer able to escape and flags cannot be defeated. They must do well, and only then will the stars of Xiangjiang will be devoted to their hearts.

"Forget it, why do you think so much? Nowadays, China is a martial arts film. Everyone thinks it is good for you to show him. It's just a preconceived idea. There is no choice.

Well, at most, this film cannot enter Wanwan from now on, or at least some consensus between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait will be reached in 1992, and the relationship will ease and no longer block each other, so that it can enter Wanwan. As for the Xiangjiang market, locals have watched more martial arts movies and are more picky in their eyes, but there are only a few people in Xiangjiang. At worst, they can sign a ratings bet with Sir Shao and take some risks for casting."

Gu Ao thought, so he made the decision.

He doesn't think there is anything to "destroy classics". The so-called classics are certainly one aspect, but preconceived ideas are also very important.

Art must serve the overall situation.

He just wanted to understand this, and Yau Ma Tei was also here.

Gu Ao went back to the house, and the maid who was in charge of cleaning all year round asked the master and said that there were business guests visiting him.

Gu Ao was stunned for a moment, walked into the living room, and found that Han Ting was rushing to discuss business with him.

He patted his forehead and felt that he was really slow.

Han Ting is in the Special Administrative Region every day and is a Hong Kong businessman. When she knows that he is in Xiangjiang, how could she not seize the opportunity to come and talk about the recent business situation?
